History

Back in the early 70's, around 1975 a small group of Vastese immigrants joined together to create their own soccer club called the Vastese Soccer Club. With that, many other Vastese immigrants came along to join in on the social dances, picnics and other celebrations associated with it. The group became so popular that they formed a club, first giving it the name of Vastese Families and then changing it to Vastese Association of WA Inc. and their first Committee consisted of President E. Raspa, Vice President G. Scacchia, Secretary V. Di Rosso and Treasurer D. Puca. Back then, they didn't have their own premises so they relied on hiring halls to hold their regular functions.

In the early 80's, around 1982 the club had grown so large that the members decided to build their own club. They named it Vasto Club Circolo Abruzzese of WA Inc. By 1983 construction was approved and building began. The club was formally opened on the 27th March, 1988.
